I don't have an exact reason as to why self-tensioning tire chains are not recommended for a 2021 Ford Transit T250 per the owner's manual but we have plenty of manual tension options that will work for you depending on your tire size. It looks like there are only two sizes which can use chains for AWD models, 205/75-16 and 235/65-16 so I have attached options for both of these sizes below. Please note, the chains must only be installed on the rear and they must also be class s rated.

The Curt 7-Way part # C55774 that you referenced is a fit for your 2018 Ford Transit T250 IF it has the factory tow package and the round connector for a 7-way present at the rear of the vehicle. It's possible you don't have the factory tow package and the connector you are looking for just isn't there. I attached a picture of what the connector you'd need looks like. This would require a different route for installing the trailer wiring. Instead you'd need to start with 4-way # HM11140244... view full answer...
To install a trailer brake controller in your 2017 Ford Transit T250 with a factory 7-way connector you will need to hardwire the controller since there is not a factory trailer brake controller port on your vehicle.
I recommend using the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 # 90195 as it is an extremely reliable controller with great features like an easy to read LCD screen, and built in diagnostics that are easy to read and understand. You will need to use the Wiring Kit # 5506 to provide the power and... view full answer...
None of the Ford Transit models have a plug in harness, like what the # 3034-P is designed to fit. The installation of an electric brake controller requires using the included pig tail to hard wire into the van's wiring.
If your Transit is not wired for a brake controller you can use # ETBC7 to install everything you'll need, including a 7-way trailer connector. Although it sounds like you may already be set up. For a brake controller I suggest the Tekonsha Prodigy P2 # 90885 because of... view full answer...
The Fan-Tastic Vent Ultra Breeze Trailer Roof Vent Cover - 23" x 19.5" x 10.25" - Smoke # FVU1500GR is the same translucent color of the Fan-Tastic Vent # FVK1020-19. This isn't so much a blue color as a gray color similar to sun glasses. The attached video represents the color of both items well.

According to the online owners manual for your 2016 Ford Transit T250, there are requirements for Class S or 15mm or less chains. Class S is an SAE designation for vehicles with restricted wheel well clearance. There was no restriction listed for wheel sensors. As long as your chains meet these requirements, you shouldn't have any issues.
If you have 235/65R16 tires, I recommend the Konig Self-Tensioning Snow Tire Chains - Diamond Pattern - D Link - XG12 Pro - Size 245, # TH01594245,... view full answer...
The VanTred mat part # VTFT15L that you referenced is custom fit for your 2020 Ford Transit T250 and would not require any trimming. It will easily fit around the wheel wells too as it was shaped to do so. view full answer...
For a trailer hitch and trailer wiring harness setup for your 2018 Ford Transit T250 all you need is the etrailer hitch # e98842 and the 7-way kit part # 22114 that you referenced and you'd be set! view full answer...
For your 2016 Ford Transit T250 I recommend Curt trailer hitch # C13193. This is a Class III trailer hitch rated for 6,000 pounds gross trailer weight. When using weight distribution it is rated for 8,000 pounds gross trailer weight. I have linked a video showing an example installation for you.
To add a 4-Way flat trailer connector at the back of the van I recommend wiring harness # C56327. I have included a link to a video showing an installation of the wiring as well.

For your 2015 Ford Transit T250, I recommend the Tekonsha OEM Replacement Vehicle Wiring Harness w Brake Controller Adapter - 7 Way Trailer Connector # 22114 which will give you everything you need for a complete tow package wiring. If you just want a 4-way trailer connector, then I recommend the Curt T-Cpmmector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # C56327 which connects to the factory wiring behind each tail light.
If you use the 7-way harness, I also recommend... view full answer...
Yes, the Blue Ox TrackPro Weight Distribution w/ Sway Control is the best style of weight distribution for an Airstream Base Camp, and Airstream actually features a video of this system being installed on their trailer so we know we can't go wrong there.
The part # BLU47FR you referenced has a tongue weight range of 600 lbs - 800 lbs which is likely too heavy for the loaded tongue weight of the Base Camp so going the next step down with part # BLU36FR which has a tongue weight range of... view full answer...
In order to install a brake controller on your 2016 Ford Transit T250 you will first need to install a Curt T-Connector # C56327 and the # ETBC7 kit which comes with everything you will need to add the 7-Way and install the brake controller. The brake controller itself is not included but I recommend the P2 # 90885 because it is easy to set up and use and it is reliable.
I have included a couple of links that will help with this installation; primarily the brake controller part of the... view full answer...
The EXT models of the 2016 Ford Transit T250 with 148 in wheelbase are slightly longer and that is why the # VTFT15LE is needed for the EXT.
For the non-EXT you would want the part # VTFT15L instead. view full answer...
There is not a plug-in adapter available for the 2017 Ford Transit T250 that will allow for a plug and play trailer brake controller installation. A brake controller, such as the excellent Tekonsha Prodigy P3 # 90195, will just need to be hardwired to the vehicle using the wires beneath the brake pedal.
If the vehicle did not come with the factory tow package or 7-Way connector, you will also need the Tekonsha Vehicle Wiring Harness # 22114. This will include everything needed to install... view full answer...
For your 2019 Ford Transit T250 we only have frame mounted hitches available like with the etrailer # e98842 which is the best value and also a really great option to carry a cargo carrier like the Folding Curt Carrier # C18151 which has a 500 lb capacity. view full answer...
There are not brackets available for retrofitting the running boards from a Ram Promaster van to your 2021 Ford Transit T250.
You can either have a local fabrication shop make you some custom brackets and custom fit the running boards, or you need to get new running boards made for your vehicle which would be the # DZ15300A-15328 for the front doors, and # DZ15331A-15328R for the rear doors. view full answer...
In order to tow a trailer with a 2018 Ford Transit T250 you'll need to start with a trailer hitch and for this I recommend the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver part # e98842 which has a class III rating suited for towing or hauling hitch mounted accessories. It also features a no-drill, bolt-on installation. The next thing you'll need is a trailer wiring harness and for this I recommend the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness part # C56327. This can then be upgraded to a 4/7-Way using... view full answer...
When we installed a brake controller in a 2015 Ford Transit T250 we found that the correct wire to use for the stoplight circuit of a brake controller is the purple wire that runs to the brake pedal switch.
I attached the install video that shows the entire process for you to check out.
In it we use the # ETBC7 to install a P2 part # 90885 which is one of our best selling controllers and a great option for you as well. view full answer...
Since you already have the factory tow package in your 2015 Ford Transit T250, I recommend the Tekonsha Voyager # 39510 along with the harness # 20127 to give you your basic controller. This will need to be hardwired as your vehicle doesn't have the dash adapter. I recommend using a circuit tester like # PTW2993 to test wires for function before splicing.
If there are no brake controller output wires and 12V power lined under your dash, then to hardwire your controller you will need... view full answer...
Your 2017 Ford Transit T250 will have a round connector at the rear of it that the part # HM40975 would connect directly to since your vehicle has the tow package.
If it didn't have the tow package, you'd need to start with a 4-way like part # C56327.
Now if your trailer does not have brakes all you would need is the part # 37185 as an adapter to convert the 4-way to a 7-way.
If you do have trailer brakes, you would need the # ETBC7 instead of the # 37185 and a brake controller. This... view full answer...
